Reader Bee's Birthday

Let me introduce you again to my niece - Reader Bee!

Reader Bee recently celebrated her 11th birthday and she had a carnival theme. Reader Bee and I love to get crafty and creative together so she came over and we worked on a few little projects to make the party fun and festive.

Love the cupcake tree! I detected chocolate right away! Hubby and I did one on a slightly larger scale for my niece's wedding last Fall. She had a very small wedding and hubby makes the most amazing Carrot Cake, which she asked him to make as their wedding cake.

He did a small 3 tiered cake for the bride and groom so they would have it to "officially" cut and take the top layer home, and then 100 Carrot Cupcakes for the guests. He was so very honored.

What a lovely Auntie you are Sweet Bee! You've inspired me. I've never painted faces before, but I guess as long as the kids didn't want some elaborate super hero or Disney princess, I'd do a halfway decent job. ;~)

Good Sunday Morning, Cutie Pie....I am SO delinquent in my responses to my friends. Please forgive me. Last week at work was really a killer. Maybe mow I can return to my normal life...that is if you can call my life NORMAL. LOL

Your blog is getting so VERY Halloweeny and festive. I just love it. You did a great job of downloading those vintage post cards...I am assuming you did not have ALL of these.

The birthday party photos and story are so dear. I know you all had a great time...the adults having as much fun as the children. You did a wonderful job.

Happy Birthday, Reader Bee. I loved creatng birthday parties for my kids when they were little. Today was my son's 38th birthday so I cooked his favorites for him and his family. Still love partying with my baby!

You should! You're so good at it. Sorry it's taken me a few days to get around. I've been sooo busy of late! And I can't even say I have kids at home, unless you count critters. Have I said that I just adore your sidebars? They make me smile every time.Brenda
